What are you hoping to see in AI4?

Now that this season has reached the end, what do you want to see next year?

I would like to see:

1. A few girls with a folksy style, like a Shawn Colvin or Nancy Griffith.
2. A man with who reminds me of George Michael.
3. Someone as bizarre as Boy George, but with a voice just as undeniably amazing.
4. A man with a voice as powerful, yet tender, as Josh Groban.

Oh, there are other things I will think up, and I know you have things you want to see. What are they?

I want to see men with good voices again. This season was great with the women, but lacking on male voices. And I would like to see a more raspy/deep male voice go all the way to the top. George almost made it, maybe next year someone else will make it.

I love to hear more from people with JPL-like voices. I hope that there are jollier finalists next year like him. He's not my most favorite, but I just think that he's brave. Also, I like to see some Asian girls (like Camille and Jas). I won't forget the blacks! They're absolutely great at everything!

-better voting system
-Better male singers, George was the best and we need more like him, maybe a real rocker with a kick a-- voice
-no more one artist theme nights... just pick a decade and go with it. This would provide more variety and be favorable to the kids.
-a Selena type singer (hispanic) who can maybe surprise us with a song in Spanish!
-less pushing from the judges on who we should or should not vote for. Just give a critique and leave it at that. I do NOT need to be told so and so should win and someone else shouldn't. Stop the pimping!

I would like to see:
1. A top 12 that can sing on key (even if they don't look like fashion models)
2. A revised voting system
3. Fewer repeat songs (singing the same song 3 times should not be allowed) and less Celine/Whitney
4. New and broader theme weeks. (ex ROCK)
5. Fewer commercials and less stretching a 30 min results show to 1 hour.
6. More constructive suggestions from all of the judges

1. A better top 32
2. Better song choices and a rule to prevent singing the same song that other contestants have already sung that season
3. Age increase to 18
4. Men who can sing
5. Rock night
6. New Wave Night
7. Folk night
8. "House" night
9. Not Hawaii as the "other" city, what about Denver or Santa Fe?
10. No wierd producers plotting show intrigue (why were the roman brothers there and John Stevens???)
11. No cutting of talent because of look (poor NIcole, Lisa, Dina Lopez, Michael Kowan, and that B!!!chy girl who called simon gay, she really rocked!)
12. A drunker Paula, last season she was more fun and trashy!
